I'm blown away by the 'Furniture Design and Specification' course at Stanmore School of Business! As a designer from the United States, I was looking to upskill and refresh my knowledge in the field. The course content was incredibly comprehensive, covering everything from the fundamentals of furniture design to the latest trends and technologies. The instructors were knowledgeable and provided valuable feedback on our projects. I particularly appreciated the module on sustainable design, which has become a crucial aspect of my work. The course materials were top-notch, with a great mix of theoretical and practical exercises. I've already applied the skills I gained to a real-world project, and the results have been amazing.

I took the 'Furniture Design and Specification' course at Stanmore School of Business to improve my skills as a designer in Brazil. The course was pretty cool, and I liked how it covered a wide range of topics, from design principles to manufacturing processes. The instructors were okay, but sometimes the feedback was a bit slow. I did like the group projects, though - it was great to collaborate with other students from different countries and see how they approached design challenges. The course materials were decent, but some of the videos were a bit outdated. Overall, I'm happy with what I learned, and I've already started applying some of the concepts to my own projects. One thing that really stuck with me was the importance of considering the user experience in furniture design - it's something I'll definitely keep in mind for future projects.

The course was quite detailed, with a thorough coverage of the design process, from conceptualization to implementation. I appreciated the emphasis on practical skills, such as sketching and rendering, as well as the introduction to industry-standard software like Autodesk and SketchUp. The instructors were knowledgeable, although sometimes the pace was a bit slow for my liking. The course materials were well-organized, with a clear structure and concise notes. One thing that I found particularly useful was the discussion on cultural and social factors influencing furniture design - it's something that I'll definitely consider in my future projects. Overall, I'm satisfied with what I learned, and I'm looking forward to applying my new skills to real-world projects.
